Regarding <xsl:output method="xml" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/>: I have been using xt for about 3 months, but just two days ago started working with Saxon because I need the evaluate() extension function. I have not been able to coerce Saxon into omitting the xml declaration. With xt I do not have the problem. If I use <saxon:output file="{$filename}" omit-xml-declaration="yes" method="xml"> within a template for directing output to files the xml declaration still appears also. Incidentally, xt is a very fine tool by my experience -- I can't think of any significant problem with it -- and aside from this one xml declaration problem saxon has been a real pleasure so far. -Bill ------------------- Example source: XML: <?xml version="1.0"?> <EMPTY> </EMPTY> xt stylesheet: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:xt="http://www.jclark.com/xt" extension-element-prefixes="xt"> <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:text>this is the first line of output</xsl:text> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> xt output: this is the first line of output Saxon stylesheet: <xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version="1.0" xmlns:saxon="http://icl.com/saxon" extension-element-prefixes="saxon" > <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes" omit-xml-declaration="yes"/> <xsl:template match="/"> <xsl:text>this is the first line of output</xsl:text> </xsl:template> </xsl:stylesheet> Saxon output: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>this is the first line of output > > does anyone know how to make an xsl transformation NOT > > display the first > > line : > > > > <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> > XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
